À propos de cet audio

Grandeur and opulence are everything in the famed New Orleans Garden District where pets are family and no bling is too big. Opening Furry Godmother, pet boutique and organic treat bakery, is Lacy Marie Crocker's dream come true - until the glitter gun used to make her Shih Tzu tutus becomes a murder weapon - and Lacy becomes public enemy number one.

Now detective Jack Oliver is hounding Lacy, and her Furry Godmother investor wants out before his name is tarnished by association. To make matters worse, a string of jewel heists with suspicious ties to the murder case has New Orleans residents on edge. To save her dream, Lacy must take a stand, put her keen eyes to work, and unravel what really happened at her shop that night. But can Lacy sniff out the killer cat burglar in time to get her tail-raising designs on the catwalk?

Witty and whimsical, Cat Got Your Diamonds, the first in a new cozy series by Julie Chase, will be the cat's meow for fans of Rita Mae Brown and Miranda James.

I wouldn't pay money or a credit to listen to this book, but for an audio plus option, it's pretty good. Excellent narrator makes it worth it, although the story is medicore and the underlining conservatism dates. Overall though, I liked it, and plan to listen to the rest of the series.

Decent

This series is great for anyone who loves animals, cozies, and good friends. Lacy gets herself in all kinds of trouble while running her shop and creating pet couture and pet-friendly treats. No real violence or cursing if that's an issue for you. The stories were great and kept me interested - I especially loved the bits about Penelope using Spot as a mode of transportation, it made me laugh.

Brittany Pressley did a fantastic job of narrating this series. I'm glad she didn't effect a New Orleans drawl through the series, but she did an okay job at that, too, when it was used.

This was the first series in a while that was a fun escape for me, and with one I was sad to see end. Those who love cozy mysteries and cats will surely love this.

Fanstastic series for cozy mystery lovers!

I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. It's not super heavy, it tells a good relatable story that flows easily from beginning to end, and Brittany Pressley is an excellent choice of narrator.

So enjoyable!

I was liking this book, although wondering why a book set in New Orleans had zero characters of Colour, including among featured police officers. I decided to wait and see if any showed up.

THEN, a fundraising group of women is introduced, along with their rivals. The members of the first group each maintain their wealthy families’ Antebellum-created plantations, and call their rivals “sell-outs”. These “sell-outs” are those whose ancestors increased family wealth by selling inherited plantations at the end of the 1800s. There is ZERO mention of the very important fact that both group’s families are wealthy thanks to their forebearers’ ownership (and abuse) of other humans beings.

THEN we are introduced to an extremely important customer of the main character. Our protagonist’s handiwork MUST impress this customer, the woman who has the power to ruin or establish our main character’s business. Oh, by the way, the customer ordered the handiwork to wow attendees at an event very important to her: the next Daughters of the Confederacy party. Yup. The next big event of women who are so VERY racist that they’re fine with publicly displaying their allegiance to the values of white-supremacy, primarily the ownership of fellow human beings. (The Confederacy’s Constitution specifically states that the main reason for the Confederacy’s existence is a desire to continue to own other human beings even though the U.S. Federal Government said they can’t anymore.)

This book’s main character supports White Supremacy.

That’s where I stopped reading.

I’m really disgusted with Audible for being fine with promoting racism, especially this book’s insidious promotion of white supremacy.

(Oh, and, only 3 stars for the narrator, because her performance makes it hard for the listener to differentiate between some of the characters, especially men.)

Casual racism; sneakily white supremacist

This was my first time listening to this author, and I enjoyed the story and the narration. I will listen to the 2nd book.
Light reading and entretaining.

CUTE AND ENTRETAINING
